Four hundred and twentieth IX applicator
It was already late at night, and Li Zhang took Miao Yuan away from Miao Yuan Temple. He wanted to meet Zhao Zhen, but he didn't know where he went. After all, the palace was so big and Jingfu Palace was burned again. Zhao Zhen would definitely go to a farther place to rest, so Li Zhang and Miao Yuan simply went to Liu E's place because Li Zhang told the Wang Shou Rules and asked him to find the place and notify Liu E.
However, Li Zhang did not see Liu E. After asking the people in the hall, he found out that Zhao Zhen had sent someone to inform Liu E before that the mother and son have now gone to Yanfu Palace. So Li Zhang and Miao Yuan also immediately changed their path and finally met Liu E and Zhao Zhen in Yanfu Palace.
"Miaoyuan, are you okay?" Zhao Zhen immediately stood up and asked with concern when he saw Li Zhang and Miaoyuan.
"I'm fine, but my cousin has a lot of burns." Miao Yuan shook his head at this time, then looked at Li Zhang and said.
"It's all minor injuries, it's okay." Li Zhang smiled and said. The burns on his body were indeed not serious, but they were covered in black and gray. Some areas looked a little scary. In fact, they just need to clean them and apply ointment to treat the burns.
"Imperial Doctor, treat the wounds of Li Duwei!" Liu E, who was behind, immediately spoke up and ordered. She had just heard Zhao Zhen tell her previous experience. If it weren't for Li Zhang and Wang Shougui's desperate efforts to save each other, Zhao Zhen would probably be in danger today. As the emperor, Zhao Zhen had no children. If he really had a good life, the Song Dynasty would be completely in chaos.
The imperial doctor has been here a long time ago and has just treated Zhao Zhen before. He was also a little injured. Even with Li Zhang and Wang Shougui's desperate protection, he still had some burns on his leg, which is of course not serious. In comparison, Wang Shougui's injuries were much more serious, so Liu E and Zhao Zhen were also worried about Li Zhang's injuries.
At that moment, Li Zhang followed the imperial physician to a small room next to him, and the imperial physician examined him. It turned out that Li Zhang was lucky. Compared to the unlucky man Wang Shougui, Li Zhang was also in and out of the fire, but the injuries on his body were not very serious. Most of them were just minor scalds. Of course, there were also some places heavier. For example, the most serious one was the position of his right arm near his shoulder, and a piece of skin the size of a palm was burned, and the surroundings were already red and swollen.
The imperial doctor helped Li Zhang clean the wound, and then took out the ointment for the treatment of burns to help Li Zhang apply medicine. However, at this moment, Miao Yuan suddenly pushed the door and walked in, then took the ointment from the imperial doctor's hand and said, "I'll help my cousin apply medicine, you guys go down!"
The imperial physician and others were also stunned, but they did not dare to ask more questions. They responded and turned around and went out. At this time, Li Zhang smiled helplessly and said, "Just just apply some medicine, just let the imperial physician come."
"Does my cousin dislike me for being clumsy?" Miao Yuan came to Li Zhang at this time, then opened the ointment left by the imperial doctor, reached out to apply a layer of ointment and asked.
"No, I..." Li Zhang was about to explain, but he didn't expect Miao Yuan directly pressed his fingers full of ointment on his wound. As a result, Li Zhang was so painful that he sucked cold air, and naturally he couldn't say anything later.
"Don't move around when applying medicine, otherwise don't blame me if it hurts!" Miao Yuan said again at this time, which made Li Zhang smiled bitterly. How could he move? It was obviously your intentional one, okay?
Of course, Li Zhang was not stupid enough to reason with women, so he sat honestly and Miaoyuan applied medicine to himself. However, as time went by, the atmosphere between the two became a little subtle. Li Zhang was only wearing a garment, and many places were cut open by the imperial doctor. His arms and legs were exposed outside, and even some burns were burned on his back. In addition, there were only two of them in the room, Miaoyuan's little hands gently applied to him, which naturally gave birth to ambiguous atmosphere.
Miao Yuan seemed to have noticed this change in the atmosphere, so he didn't speak for a long time, but he didn't stop on his hands. Instead, after applying other wounds, he began to apply the most serious burn on Li Zhang's arm. However, this burn was quite serious, especially the surroundings were red, swollen and bubbled. Even if Miao Yuan's technique was light, Li Zhang felt a pain in his heart.
"Does it hurt?" Miao Yuan felt Li Zhang's arm trembling and asked with concern.
"It's okay, it will be fine after a few days of applying the medicine." Li Zhang said with a strong smile, but the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed him. It's not Li Zhang's fault, after all, the pain level of burns is already very high.
"Then I'll be gentler!" Miaoyuan slowed down again and asked after a while, "Cousin is about to give birth. Do you like boys or girls?"
"Akiori asked me the same question before. I told her that she liked it, but she didn't believe it." Li Zhang knew that Miaoyuan wanted to use conversation to divert his attention, so he replied with a smile.
"I believe that cousin, you are different from other men. Your son and daughter are the same in your eyes. And I feel that you seem to like girls more, otherwise you wouldn't love Li'er so much." Miaoyuan said again while applying ointment. As the two of them talked, the ambiguous atmosphere just now also dissipated a lot.
"Haha, Miaoyuan, you guessed it right. I really like my daughter more, and I finally made Qingori believe it later." Li Zhang couldn't help laughing when he heard this. Miaoyuan grew up with him and knew him better than Qingori.
"Of course!" Miao Yuan said proudly at this time, and then seemed to have thought of something again. A sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but then sighed with some loss. His daughter's thoughts were full of twists and turns, and no one could guess it.
The wound was finally cured, and Miaoyuan went to ask someone to take out the clothes for Li Zhang to change it. At this time, Li Zhang also felt that the burned area was cool. It seemed that the ointment given by the imperial doctor was indeed good. As long as it did not get inflamed, it would probably not take long to recover.
When Li Zhang and Miao Yuan came to the front hall, they saw that Zhao Zhen and Liu E were also tired, especially Zhao Zhen, who could hardly open his eyes at this time. After all, he was so frightened that he was exhausted from both spirit and physical strength. Liu E was old, and after being seriously ill, her health was not as good as before, so both of them couldn't stand it.
When Li Zhang saw this, he immediately stepped forward to persuade Liu E and the others to rest. Anyway, the fire has been controlled now, and such a big incident happened in the palace, all the civil and military officials must have received the news. Now the imperial city is closed and they cannot enter, but they will definitely go to the palace to ask tomorrow. Liu E and Zhao Zhen will also meet the civil and military officials to make sure that they are fine.
Zhao Zhen and Liu E were indeed so tired that they nodded and agreed. At that moment, they found a place to rest in Yanfu Palace. In addition, Empress Zhang and others were also taken here. They did not live in Jingfu Palace, so they did not involve them when the fire broke out, but because they were worried about Zhao Zhen, they all rushed over.
Li Zhang was also very tired at this time, but he was not sleepy at all. Miaoyuan didn't want to rest, but Li Zhang forced him to go back because he wanted to go to the fire to see the situation, so he naturally could not bring Miaoyuan with him.
After watching Miaoyuan return to her room to rest, Li Zhang left Yanfu Palace. He saw that the sky in the east had darkened, which meant that even if the fire was not extinguished, it should be very small. Li Zhang called a few guards to follow him, and then came to the vicinity of Jingfu Palace as fast as possible.
At this time, the imperial guards in the palace had already arrived. Thanks to their demolition of some buildings around Jingfu Hall, they controlled the fire and did not spread outwards. However, the entire Jingfu Hall had been destroyed, and there were Miaoyuan Temple and some other palaces around. In general, the losses caused by this fire were extremely serious.
After learning about the general situation from the imperial guards, Li Zhang directed people to maintain order. Because the previous fires caused a lot of chaos, some people even took advantage of the chaos to steal, and some places caused trampling. It can be said that many people who were actually burned to death have not been trampled to death.
The Imperial Army was responsible for the aftermath, and Li Zhang then stepped into the fire. The ground was covered with coke and sweat. Some ruins were filled with open fires, and some places were filled with thick smoke. But the burning things were almost burned, and the remaining open and dark fires were no longer enough to worry about.
However, I have no idea about the cause of the fire. Moreover, the area of the fire is so large that it is not easy to find even the fire point. Now I can only wait until the order is restored tomorrow and all the palace maids and eunuchs are gathered together to interrogate, hoping to find the first range of the fire and then find the cause of the fire.
The fire scene has not been cleaned yet, and some places are still very dangerous, such as those tall palaces that are burned by fire and may collapse at any time. So Li Zhang could only turn around the periphery of the fire scene and dare not go too far. Moreover, it was almost dawn. It was estimated that after the officials outside the imperial city saw the fire, they were now gathering outside the imperial city gate.
Thinking of this, Li Zhang immediately rushed to Gongchen Gate. The imperial city was divided into outer city and inner palace. There were palace walls between them, and several city gates were opened on the city wall. The most important one was Gongchen Gate. This palace gate was located south of Chuigong Hall and Zichen Hall, not far from the two halls, so one word was named from each of the two halls.
When Li Zhang rushed to Gongchen Gate, he immediately heard a noisy on the other side of the palace gate, but the imperial guards on the city gate kept guarding the palace gate. After all, this is the separation line between the outer city and the inner palace, and foreign ministers are not allowed to enter normally. Unless several prime ministers were summoned to discuss matters, they could enter. Other officials were not summoned and could only wait outside the palace gate.
